Assembling your Sharp Shooter II
Metal Detector is easy and requires no
tools. Just follow these steps:

●

1

Using the supplied bolt and knurled
knob, attach the search coil to the
lower stem.

●

2

Press the button on the upper end
of the lower stem and slide the
lower stem into the upper stem.

Adjust the stem to a length that
lets you maintain a comfortable
upright posture, with your arm
relaxed at your side.

●

3

Wind the search coil cable around
the stem. Leave enough slack in the
cable to let you adjust the coil when
you are hunting on uneven ground.
Then tighten the knob at the end of
the search coil.

Note:

To adjust the coil,

simply loosen the knob.

●

4

Insert the coil’s plug into the
matching connector on the control
housing. Be sure the holes and
pins line up correctly.

Caution:

• Do not force the plug in.

Excess force will cause damage.

• To disconnect the cable, pull on the

plug. Do not pull on the cable.
